Good evening (or maybe also morning, afternoon, night ;),
I have just uploaded pb17 to the mirrors, these are the changes:
- the DHCP server now also serves clients on optional interfaces
(yes, you all can stop begging now ;)
- the webGUI password is no longer stored in plaintext (one-way
encryption)
- in the CD-ROM version, the default config.xml is now automatically
copied to the floppy disk if not found
(i.e. a blank floppy disk may be used)
- upgraded mini_httpd to 1.17beta1 (security issues)
- incorporated patch from FreeBSD security advisory SA-03:18
- other minor/cosmetic fixes (e.g. help text in console LAN IP setup to
explain subnet bit counts)
Due to the threefold security improvement (encrypted passwords, FreeBSD
patch, mini_httpd update), I strongly recommend everybody to upgrade. The
configuration file will be automatically converted (and the webGUI
password encrypted).
Greets,
Manuel
